what is the difference between F1 and A1?

First Delhi GP is in 2011, isn't it? Then the racetrack must be close to completion now, if not completely finished. Can't wait to see what Force India does in India. You never know, despite being a die-hard supporter of Filippe Massa and Ferrari, I might be cheering for Force India for that race.

InshaAllah, I will be at the Canadian GP in Montreal in 2011 and Abu Dhabi GP in 2012. Look out for a fat guy with a Pakistani flag, that'll be me.

what is the difference between F1 and A1?

AFAIK, there is no more A1GP. The idea was a flop from the start. F1 is the top-tier open-wheel racing league in the world.

this place is out of this world.

the amount of facilities in sports cities and the speed of construction, you just cant believe these are same Indian worker who couldn't finish a damn commonwealth game on time.

they are working so fast, the work pace is if not better than atleast at pace of dubai construction sites.

if only they could have handled the national sporting occasions.

the roads , the landscaping, the signage, the construction is top notch, it doesn't look like same noida we see at atta market.

[doctor_who]

went there recently and its friggin far away from south delhi, but man was i shocked, just see it to belive it, i was there to find out about some residential project, they have evry damn thing stadiums , pools , indoor stadiums, f1 circuit is going guns blazing , its a private project so there wont be no delay since jaypee will have to provide round 100 million $ if the project is delayed and not up to mark - since they will have to shift it to new destination.
